The relationship between a company and its employees has varied facets to it. One of the key sources of interaction and communication for both is employee recognition and appreciation. The Globoforce Mobile app claims to make sure through its services, that the employee recognition is in sync with their performances and company’s culture.
It’s noted that generally there is a time gap after a recognition moment. The app allows managers to receive, accept, give and redeem recognition awards at any time and any place. This makes sure that good work and desired behavior are never missed. Companies can create a well connected, diligent workforce by way of timely recognition which is driven by values and available to all employees.
Eric Mosley, CEO of Globoforce commented, “Globoforce continues to set the pace for the new frontier of HR and employee recognition. Globoforce Mobile, Recognition Intelligence, and Social Recognition are just three of the examples. No longer will employee appreciation be restricted to physical proximity, hampered by distance or timing, or invisible to the organization. Now, anecdotal ‘thank yous’ will be captured in a quantifiable, living embodiment of company culture. Best of all, HR leaders will have the real-time performance knowledge to identify their company’s influencers and truly understand the employee connections that push the company forward.”
Owing to the farness of the employees’ location, they are on the move most of the time because of which missing out on recognition moments often becomes a common phenomenon. This new mobile is supposedly the first HR app to provide for measurable value from social media and mobile devices in a wholesome and safe environment.
“Tomorrow’s successful HR leaders will be the ones who embrace social and mobile technologies today,” stated Jim Holincheck, managing vice president, Gartner, Inc. “These new technologies enable real-time employee connectivity and interaction across dispersed workforces, which can drive greater employee engagement, productivity, and ROI. As more companies adopt social and mobile into their HR functions, including employee recognition, they will benefit from the real-time view into employee performance and corporate culture.”
The new app in short gives the employees the recognition in real time, eliminating the time gap between work and appreciation. The Globoforce Mobile app is currently available at the App Store for the iPhone and iPod touch.
